Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

1981 Topps–Christenson, Salazar, Keough, Parrott

I’m collecting the 1981 set, slowly but surely. This post is the latest in my quest for the completion.

Card Facts – Larry Christenson – Philadelphia Phillies – Card #346

Purchase Price – $.05 (Ebay lot 100/$4.99)

For the record, I prefer these Phillies uniforms. Not that I don’t like their current ones, just prefer these. Maybe it just feels more old school.

Speaking of old school uniforms. No, I don’t really like these. Can’t think of any Padres uniforms I like but there may be some out there. Actually, I take that back, I like the camouflage ones. So sue me.

Powder blues, oh yeah. Love the old school Mariners logo on his shoulder. Just watched the movie 50/50 and the main character had a Mariners hat with that logo and I even told my wife that I liked that logo.
